Why did you choose mental health as a career path?
“I decided that I wanted to be a therapist when I was 13 years old. I saw people of all ages and various walks of life struggling with relational problems, stress, addiction, grief, and other mental health challenges. In our community, there was no mental health care readily available, and I knew I wanted to help.”
